Attractive lounge |
1351 Main St St. Helena, CA 94574 +1 707 963 1969 http://www.1351lounge.com info@1351lounge.com |
Located in a building that used to house a local dive called The Cellar, this hip lounge has been receiving rave reviews. It is a great place to pop in after work and spy on local politicians engaged in animated conversation over a drink, or catch the live music or occassional stand up comic on Friday and Saturday nights. This is a very attractive place with classy decor, excellent service, and an all-around good vibe. The martinis have become a local legend. Review © 2007, Wcities |
Racing champion's Tuscan villa |
4162 Big Ranch Road Napa, CA 94558 +1 707 261 1717 http://www.andrettiwinery.com info@andrettiwinery.com |

Guests are encouraged to tour the 4,000-square-foot facility designed to look like a Tuscan villa. Up to 300 guests can be accommodated for private parties. The Winner's Circle Wine Club offers members two bottles of wine four times a year, recipes from Mario's kitchen that complement Andretti wines, discounts, a newsletter, special tours and tasting.

Wine anyone? |
974 Franklin Street Napa, CA 94559 +1 707 226 1378 / +1 877 322 2576 http://www.backroomwines.com/ |
Hard day at work? Need to unwind? Then this shop is for you. The best selection of wines can be found under this roof. Yet this shop offers more. There are a few wines for tasting at all times and also a lot of theme nights, like Friday Night Wine Flights, Guest Wineries at Back Room Wines on Saturdays and sit-down blind tastings on Wednesdays. And you can even buy a bottle of wine at retail price and drink it here. So if tea is all you drink, then here is a suggestion. Try a bit of wine, or just sip it. It's free! Review © 2007, Wcities |
 Rustic charm |
1250 Lincoln Ave Calistoga, CA 94515 +1 707 942 4101 http://www.napabeer.com info@calistogainn.com |
In an area better known for highbrow tastes and attitudes, this dining gem offers a welcomed touch of rustic reality. Its patio overlooks the banks of the Napa River and during the warm months, the kitchen staff can be seen cooking outdoors over wood-fired grills. The deceptively sophisticated menu harvests a wide range of global influences, featuring such entrees as grilled flank steak, country paella and California udon. An adjacent brewery serves award-winning micro-brews. Visit on the weekend for live acoustic music in its pub. Review © 2007, Wcities |
 Sonoma County favorite |
3333 Petaluma Blvd N Petaluma, CA 94952 +1 707 763 8920 http://www.cinnabartheater.org/ |
This Sonoma County community theater showcases and teaches opera and musical theater, theater, chamber series and dance productions for adults and children.

 Popular local hideaway |
2766 Old Sonoma Rd Napa, CA 94558 +1 707 252 6178 |
Located in a strip mall off the beaten track in southwestern Napa, this trendy 40-seat restaurant is noted for its terrific food. The ambiance is friendly and casual, the decor ultra-rustic. Using local produce, fresh ingredients and free-range meats, chef/owner Jerry Shaffer creates outstanding barbecue, including the highly recommended baby back ribs. Gargantuan portions are standard. The eclectic menu features several fish dishes, wonderfully prepared fresh vegetables and mouth-watering desserts. There is an outstanding selection of local wines. It can get crowded on the weekends, so be sure to reserve a table. Review © 2007, Wcities |
Old-fashioned ice cream parlor |
1347 Main St St. Helena, CA 94574 +1 707 963 3332 http://www.napavalley.com/gails/ |
This famous establishment in Saint Helena is an old-fashioned ice cream parlor and cafe with lots of old soda signs and 1950s memorabilia on the walls. It contains a full espresso bar, a scrumptious candy store and a variety of antiquities. The chocolate fudge here is legendary, as are the store's excellent coffees and teas. An array of wines and beers are available and the breakfast and lunch deals cannot be beat. The store even sells back issues of Life Magazine! Review © 2007, Wcities |

Ideal for wine lovers |
6795 Washington St Washington Square Yountville, CA 94599 +1 707 944 8686 http://www.napavalleygrille.com/ Yountville@NapaValleyGrille.com |
The restaurant is most known for its award-winning wine list that features the best of the Wine Country, including many rare and older vintages. Dine al fresco on a floral-lined patio or admire the view from inside a luxurious setting. The ambiance is romantic, and nice enough to bring clients for a relaxing meal. The menu focuses on flavorful pasta and risottos, and exotic meat dishes like Braised Wild Boar and Seared Rare Ostrich. For lighter fare, enjoy Seared Rare Sesame-crusted Ahi or a plate of Smoked Chicken Spring Rolls. Prices on the award-winning wine list start at $25 a bottle. Review © 2007, Wcities |

 Stage it on!! |
1030 Main Street Napa, CA +1 707 226 7372 http://www.nvoh.org/ |
Restored in 2003, this magnificent Opera house never knew it would live to see its good old days again. But now, its fate has reversed and restored it stands. With a whole bunch of activities happening in this beautiful place, the ones to look out for would be the play 'I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change'; there is also the Indigo Girls' performance that should not be missed, but the highlight should be 'Elevation 63', which features acrobats from the ages of eight to 21 - this play has a creative outburst that is innovative and compelling. But for those who love their funny bone tickled, do not miss the stand-up comedy competition, or better yet compete in it. Making a fool of yourself could not be more fun. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Casual golf course dining |
1600 Atlas Peak Rd Silverado Resort Napa, CA 94558 +1 707 257 0200 http://www.silveradoresort.com/ |
Overlooking the south golf course, the Royal Oak is one of three restaurants at the Silverado Resort. Massive beams, floor-to-ceiling picture windows and plush upholstered chairs create an elegantly relaxed ambiance. The tables allow ample legroom and private conversation. Dressy casual attire is appropriate and the service is sublime. Menu items are prepared using local produce, herbs, meats and poultry. Try the Mesquite-grilled Pork Tenderloin, Yakitori-style and the farm-raised Muscovy Duck Breast. The sinfully delicious desserts include a Creme Brulee Duet (praline and vanilla bean) and White Chocolate & Croissant Bread Pudding. There is a full bar and extensive local wine list.

Lunch at the Club House |
1600 Atlas Peak Rd Silverado Country Club Napa, CA 94558 +1 707 257 0200 http://www.silveradoresort.com/ info@silveradoresort.com |
Located in the Club House at the golf course, this is a relaxing spot for either breakfast before a game, a leisurely lunch, or a place to relax after the game with a drink. Casual dress, including tennis or golf attire, is appropriate. The breakfast menu features a nice variety of egg dishes, fresh fruit, pancakes and waffles. Lunch offerings include a soup and salad bar, inventive salads, sandwiches, burgers and light entrees. Try the Chilled Grilled Chicken Salad with Hawaiian Pesto served with fresh papaya and a yogurt dressing, or the Twice-Cooked Baby Back Ribs Huli Huli-style. Review © 2007, Wcities |
Charming and cosmopolitan |
1226 Washington St Calistoga, CA 94515 +1 707 942 4712 http://www.wappobar.com wappo@napanet.net |
This fabulous place offers Asian cuisine with a California flair. It has received rave reviews from Sunset, Gourmet, USA Today, and The Wine Enthusiast. With an uncompromising wine list that includes a 1997 Marcassin Chardonnay at USD195 and a menu with hits like Roast Rabbit with Mustard Cream and Braised Milk-fed Veal Shanks with White Wine, it is hard to go wrong. This is a relaxed but sophisticated bistro where you can dine outside in the garden by the fountain or have an intimate meal inside. It is an excellent and eclectic place with dynamite service.

Via Espanola!! |
829 Main Street Napa, CA +1 707 224 8555 http://www.zuzunapa.com info@zuzunapa.com |
What happens here? Simple - everything. This place is 'with it', that is for sure. With events every night, and some seriously divine items on the menu, this Mediterranean, Portugal and Spain joint has it all. The décor is a mélange of local and international art, and if you look up, the Mexican tin ceiling just adds the perfect touch of Latino to the place. The music rocks!!! The Latin beats just envelop the place, which culminates into a fusion of good food, great décor and the best beats. Review © 2007, Wcities |
